Is there a property(movie, video game etc.) that you wish had gotten figures but never did or they got figures but it wasn't the scale/quality you expected?

For me it would have to be:

1. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater: I absolutely love this video game, I have played it multiple times and never get tired of it. A highly articulated 6" line where we would get all the Cobras, Naked Snake(Big Boss) and the rest of the characters would be a dream come true. However after the whole Mcfarlane/Kojima disagreement, the Kojima/Konami "separation" and the fact that the video game came out ages ago this will remain wishful thinking.

2. Castlevania: This remains one of my all time favorite video game series with some spectacular character designs that would make for some awesome figures. NECA released some really great ones a few years back but were lacking in articulation, my ideal line would be something like what NECA did but more poseable and more characters. Another Pipe dream considering this franchise is basically dead.

3. Mass Effect: DC Direct made some ok ones, but the limited articulation and in some cases being preposed really hurt the line for me. I would love a full line with characters from all 3 games. Make them 6" with some decent articulation and I'm a happy camper with a new game on the horizon there still a faint chance.

Honorable mention: Knights of the Old Republic, I know we got some of these guys but if Hasbro made a line dedicated to this game with characters from both games and an Ebon Hawk around the time of the games well I would have taken out a loan just so I could get all of them.

I've been railing on this for years.....I would like to see an 6" line for the Nintendo Classics for Mike Tyson's Punch Out & Pro-Wrestling. I've seen customs online but that would be money in my opinion.....Castlevania would be awesome as well....

I'm right with you guys on Castlevania, I looked into getting the older NECA ones... man are those expensive! I hope they're able to do the retro video game one. I'd love a Mike Tyson, I remember Randy saying he'd love to, but knows it'll never happen. Pro Wrestling too, I actually have some customs planned for them and Tyson, if I ever do them, that's another topic all its own, lol.

I'd love a better create-a-wrestler line. The WWE one was a nice start, but I think the themed stuff really hurt it. Kids want to make wrestlers, not zombies and spartans, lol.

I'd love for a classics type of line that made all those older "he-man bootleg" looking figures. Ones with animal heads, wrestlers, knights... maybe even some of the licensed lines that had similar figures like Rambo, etc... that'd be awesome, probably never happen, but still awesome.

Oh man, Mad Max how I could I forget t Mad Max, I would love an action figure of Mad Max(the real one), with a shotgun and throw in the Pursuit Special/V8 Intercepetor to make it even better. I loved playing Punch Out as a kid , a line of figures would be interesting, I would also throw in Mega Man as a good candidate for a line of figures.

I'd like to see 3-3/4" lines for Star Trek and Firefly/Serenity, respectively, complete with vehicles and playmates. I know Funko has done some in their ReAction line, and I love those for what they are, but...I'd love to see a line of these that sports quality to rival that of Hasbro's Star Wars line at it's peak.

I'd also like to see the Four Horsemen do 6-inch lines for Silverhawks and Bionic Six.

Interests:Drawing, Action figures, video games, TV series, Cartoons and Movies; i guess that i generally enjoy the marvel films but outside that i enjoy Horror, Action or just overall good stories with amazing characters uwu.

At this point i admit i got a variety of characters I'd love to see them have an 6" action figure of their own, it might be hard for me to say who should make them like Neca, Hasbro or any other company but i can say the characters names and where are they from, some are just gonna have their names as they're titular characters, which I'll mention my 10 most wanted ones:

Alice Liddell from American McGee's Alice: so there is a diamond select figure out of her but i frankly don't like the headsculpt as it doesn't look anything like her at all.

Sir Daniel Fortesque from Medievil: it might be hard to make this figure unless I'm proven wrong somehow.

Jade from Mortal Kombat: I'd most likely go for her MK11 design since i love it uwu.

Babydoll from Suckerpunch.

Chappie

Dawn from Total Drama

Princess Aurora/Briar Rose:... What? I can dream about that thought can't i?

Reaper from Overwatch: the main design that is since Hasbro only made his blackwatch outfit which i can wait for that figure to come. (Oh and that i can't get the Figma figure soooo yeh).

Doctor Strange (classic comic design): we just need one OwO.

Kim from Edward Scissorhands: to be frank... I love her character, her beauty and, yeh i just really adore character to be frank, plus imma Winona Ryder fan.

I'd love to see some company take another pass at ML style Buffy the Vampire Slayer figures.

Yeah, I know Diamond did the Buffy/Angel Deluxe figures back in the day, but as we all know, when a company not known for articulation jumps into the deep waters of super articulation it usually isn't pretty. These were no different, suffering the same problems the early Funko Legacy and DCCs Batman the Animated Series figures did: POA constructed from shoddy, extremely brittle plastic and prone to breakage.

Worse, unlike the Animated Batman line, the Buffy Deluxe line was so short lived they never got a chance to work the "kinks" out.

I'd like to see someone else give Firefly a shot. Funko was less than stellar. I'd love it if Hasbro did all 9 of the crew. I'm not asking for a Serenity playset though, that'd be way too big and out of my budget.

I know it's not super toyetic, but I think I'd enjoy having the Community cast, specially since many of them have cameoed in the MCU.

I'd also like someone (possibly NECA, but wouldn't mind if Hasbro did them since they've really been acing everything lately) did the original ID4 some justice.

I'd also like some 6" Uncharted figures, not just the Nathan Drake, also an Elena, Sully, and Chloe.

Now that retro is going strong and stuff like MoTU it's coming back to the mainstream...and retail, I'd like some figures based on Thundarr the Barbarian and Filmation's Blackstar, I know that these two properties are not as famous as the aforementioned, but a guy can dream.

I could see diamond Select do a firefly line, they often go back and do older brands like that

I want original Blade Runner figure series, as well as pink Joi hologram figure from 2049 (Maybe even 1/4 scale). Sadly, Neca did say they aren’t planing that so far. Next would be Twin Peaks figure series, Funko did do pretty nice 3 3/4 inch set but I would love 6-7 inch scale line.

Super-poseable figures of Michael Dudikoff, Steve James, Tadashi Yamashida, and or course, David Bradley from the later sequels. Ninja army-builders, soldier army builders . . . a cute little Judie Aronson figure, who wouldn't be into that?
